Cardiac Amyloidosis Research

Pioneering Research, Diagnosis, and Treatment for a Rare Heart Disease

Cardiac amyloidosis, particularly ATTR (transthyretin) amyloidosis, is a progressive condition where abnormal protein deposits impair the heart’s function, often leading to heart failure. At CliniQuest Research Site, an initiative of CRK-NGO and based in St. Mary’s Mission Hospital, Nairobi, we are dedicated to advancing research, early diagnosis, and access to innovative therapies. With a comprehensive ecosystem that includes clinics, laboratories, pharmacies, patient recruitment, data management, and regulatory support, we provide a trusted hub for amyloidosis clinical trials in Kenya and across Africa.

Our Research Focus on Cardiac Amyloidosis in Kenya

Our approach to tackling cardiac amyloidosis is comprehensive, addressing the full spectrum of patient needs:

Access to New Treatments

Early Detection in ATTR Cardiac Amyloidosis

We use advanced echocardiography, ECG, and biomarker testing to identify cardiac amyloidosis early, even in resource-limited settings.

Neglected diseases, epidemiological studies, Infectious diseases

Innovative Therapies for TTR Amyloidosis Research

Partnering with global sponsors, we evaluate stabilizers, silencers, and emerging therapies that can slow disease progression.

Data Management and Statistical Analysis

Patient Recruitment & Retention

Our dedicated department engages diverse communities, ensuring equitable access to clinical trials for underserved populations.

Ethical Standards

Real-World Data & Outcomes

By integrating clinical data, laboratory results, and pharmacovigilance, we contribute meaningful insights to global amyloidosis research.
